For a couple of days, I’ve gathered a lot of information about prime numbers and algorithms which generates them. out of all the available algorithms, “Sieve of Eratosthenes” is one of the most normally used ones and i want to implement this algorithm in python. After an hour of battle with the Python, i successfully tamed it. The scriptgenerates all the prime numbers within the range of 2 and the number scanned from the user. The script will be available at http://rapidshare.com/files/411537514/eratosthenes.py.html
